This PIN and subsequent provider engagement event is intended as an awareness, communication, and information gathering exercise. An expression of interest is no indication of a commitment to participate in the future selection process nor does it infer any preferential or special status on those individuals and organisations who express an interest at any point during the event. NECS is utilising an electronic tendering portal (In-Tend) to manage this event and as such interested individuals and organisations will need to register on the portal to access the Briefing Notice documentation and submit their completed RFI.
